Temple Stakes 2013 Preview

Reck-ing Crew - Unbeaten Reckless Abandon returns in Saturday's Temple Stakes

The big Saturday races keep on coming now for the foreseeable future and with Group racing on both sides of the Irish Sea this Saturday we look set for another fantastic weekend of equine action.

It is domestically that we stay for this preview though, and the 5f contest that is the Temple Stakes at Haydock, part of the British Champions Series.

Won impressively last year by Bated Breath and one for the real speed merchants out there this year’s renewal has a couple of interesting angles to it but doesn’t exactly look a vintage running.

That said I’m particularly excited for this year’s Temple Stakes as it looks set to be the three-year-old debut of one of my favourite juveniles from last season Reckless Abandon.
